The WP documentation says clearly that it should be an array as we implemented it. That’s why we think, one of the plugin you’ve installed on your WP should misuse this variable. Anyway, we’ve managed this exception in our last release, and we’ve reconvert this variable into array. You should not have any problem any more. * Hope it’ll help ! * Cheers, Charles Viewing 6 replies - 1 through 6 (of 6 total) The topic ‘Creates a fatal error’ is closed to new replies. * ![](https://ps.w.org/resmushit-image-optimizer/assets/icon-256x256.png?rev=3049668) * [reSmush.it : The original free image compressor and optimizer plugin](https://wordpress.org/plugins/resmushit-image-optimizer/) * [Frequently Asked Questions](https://wordpress.org/plugins/resmushit-image-optimizer/#faq) * [Support Threads](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/resmushit-image-optimizer/) * [Active Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/resmushit-image-optimizer/active/) * [Unresolved Topics](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/resmushit-image-optimizer/unresolved/) * [Reviews](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/resmushit-image-optimizer/reviews/) * 6 replies * 2 participants * Last reply from: [reSmush.it](https://wordpress.org/support/users/resmushit/) * Last activity: [5 years, 11 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/creates-a-fatal-error/#post-12979645) * Status: resolved
